Edited loose adapation of Heinlein's Puppet Masters, w/ Leonard Nimoy. by R. Christenson (Pine, CO USA) 3 Stars
October 30, 2005
Supposedly The Brain Eaters was a loose and unauthorized adaptation of the classic science fiction novel The Puppet Masters by Robert A. Heinlein (Starship Troopers, Space Cadet, Friday), but when Heinlein threatened to sue, the producers settled by editing the film to change it sufficiently, resulting in releaseing a one hour movie. It's about small invading alien parasites from outer space. They attach themselves to the human spine and take over the human mind. It has one of the more interesting space ships, though not shown in flight. An investigator crawls into the spaceship through the hatch and into an interior tunnel that he follows without turning or backing up, and it leads him back out the same hatch. The Brain Eaters has one of Leonard Nimoy's earliest appearances as an older scientist. Later Nimoy played Mr. Spock on Star Trek, where the Puppet Masters idea was used again in the episode "Operation Annihilate!" in which Spock is the victim/host of one of the parasites.

A scientist's thoughts materialize as an army of invisible brain-shaped monsters (complete with spinal-cord tails!) who terrorize an American military base in this nightmarish chiller, directed by Arthur Crabtree (Horrors of the Black Museum). This outstanding sci-fi/horror hybrid is a special effects bonanza, and a high-water mark in British genre filmmaking.
